The description says "high flow", but is the full flow rate?

I think the flow rate will depend a lot on which filter you install inside it. I have used a 50 micron and a 30 micron filter and couldnt tell any difference in either one. My flow rate is not noticably diffe rent than it was before I installed the unit.

I really don't know how many gallons per minute pass through the filter. I have a 1 HP pump and all 1" pvc until it divides under the house into half inch pipes. The shower that is the farthest from the pump produces more pressure than I can stand UNTIL the filter begins to clog, and then drops rapidly. I use that as a simple indicator that it's time to change filters. I use 50 micron in the subject housing and my water comes directly from a clear river, so there are times that there is a lot of sediment. I have had other types of sediment filters and this one has far higher throughput than any I've used. I really don't know how many gallons per minute pass through the filter.

I could not detect a GPH rate difference, but we're using the largest filter media - I believe it's the 50 micron sized media - and it completely resolved our silt and sand issue.

My unit serves my kitchen sink and ice maker only. It allows plenty of flow so that pressure at the faucet is adequate.

Other answers are correct. The housing itself will not limit the flow of water. They call it a high flow unit only because it has a wider diameter inlet and outlet (1") I have had my unit for about a year and have not noticed any decrease in water pressure. If you do not have 1" plumbing coming from the street than "high flow is not going to make any difference for you.

I'm certain that ratings cannot be provided as they fully depend on what filter media you use and your GPH from your current pump...your pump is technically where a GPH rating will come from. I was told that these where great for small homes & shallow wells with jet pumps with specific filters and it has worked great for me. You would have to understand a little bit about hydraulics to understand that larger diameter = higher unrestricted flow rates which can increase pressure slightly depending on many unknown variables. Simply put, with so many variables in a system, each one will have different flow rates. Hope this helps somewhat.

In my opinion it's as fast as a sprayer needs to be. I have had no flow concerns with it. That's about all I can tell you

Don't know. Probably the mesh is As fine as it can be to allow adequate flow rate

In my opinion it is a fast flow. I use them for on the go ready to feed bottles.

I have no idea which flow rate I have. I love my faucet though. I find that the hand held spray nozzle has more power. Exceptional value.

Although it is labeled "low flow" since I personally installed it (very simple actually) the flow has been very vigorous, not low flow at all. My house has two apartments and I live on the top apartment, the flow of water diminishes somewhat when my tenants are using water, otherwise as I mentioned its flow is vigorous, actually better than the previous shower head I had (which was also more expensive!). I have not had to adjusted, but if you experience low flow then it does have that capability. Hope this is helpful.

After playing with it some more, I found what you and another reviewer stated: tab toward you is 2.5GPM highest flow and tab away is lower flow. Thanks for your confirmation.

The flow is excellent, even with the restrictor. The faucet uses fluidics to make the flow feel stronger and fuller without the actual volume. Technology at work!

Thats fine. Its not a mechanical filter so it doesn't need to occupy all the space. As long as its in a high flow area

Not sure what you mean by flow rate. The pressure is great. Has full flow or spray. It works great

Don't know the flow rate, but, I can tell you that on low speed it is around 2 psi and on high it is about 10 psi. 115 vac hi and low.

That is just the model number not GPH. The flow rate for the 1200 is 315 gallons per hour and that is true flow rate not like marineland who boasts a 360 gph rate that is( by their own spec's) actually only 220. Hand down the penn plax is by far a better pump. I have 5 of them after going through fluval, marineland, API.

I think that flow rate is probably more relevant. Flow rate is the net production of water through the distribution system when considering friction and restriction. Enough flow rate it works great, not enough it doesn't work at all. I didn't mean to make this sound complicated... generally the Kreepy Krauly works fine. But if it doesn't now you know why!

I just looked at the instruction sheet for this model and it does NOT give flow rate; however, it states that for questions and concerns to contact "Tetracare Consumer Support" 800-423-6458 or www.tetracare.comHope this helps!

Sorry. I don't know. I've never had a problem with the flow. My Siroflex produces a strong flow.

I really don't know. However, the best place to find out is at the custom flow website.

It's a good pump but, I cannot tell it's exact flow. I power a fountain and a filter.
